BJP will be in trouble if I open my mouth: Nitish

In a veiled threat to BJP leaders on the offensive against him after JD(U) parted ways with the NDA partner, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Monday said that if he opened his mouth many of them would be in trouble.

"If I open my mouth a lot of people will be in trouble," Kumar told reporters on the sidelines of a programme in Patna.

BJP President Rajnath Singh, who addressed a party rally in Patna on Sunday, had trashed JD(U)'s allegations that Narendra Modi was an autocratic and divisive leader.

He had attacked JD(U) for 'suddenly' finding fault with the Gujarat chief minister and his leadership after being part of the alliance for 17 years.

The BJP President had also questioned Kumar's growing proximity to the Congress.
